Attending antenatal check-ups throughout pregnancy allows your care team to monitor your health and your baby's development, and to catch potential complications early.
A typical antenatal visit may include checking your blood pressure, monitoring your baby's growth, and discussing any symptoms or concerns you may have.
If you are pregnant and have not yet started antenatal visits, or if it has been a while since your last check-up, our maternity team is available 24 hours a day.

Some symptoms need urgent attention rather than waiting for a routine appointment. These include difficulty breathing, severe or persistent bleeding, chest pain, sudden weakness or confusion, severe burns, and loss of consciousness.
If you or someone near you experiences any of these signs, do not wait. Call our emergency line immediately so our team can advise you and prepare to receive the patient.
When in doubt, it is always safer to call and ask than to wait and see.

Washing your hands with soap and clean water for at least 20 seconds is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of common illnesses.
Encourage regular hand washing before eating or preparing food, after using the toilet, and after coughing or sneezing, especially for young children.
If soap and water are not available, an alcohol-based hand sanitiser is a reasonable alternative for everyday use.
